Title: Message
First of all, he is doing business from his cable line. If customers of ours want to use services not included in their plan we have every right to tell them to upgrade.
 
Second, this is your opportunity as his email provider to have him do this the correct way which is to pay you for a list serve. If it makes you feel better charge him less that the cable company would.

Why not sell him a list service, host the list on your server, he sends one e-mail out to the list which then sends to all his customers.

Can IMail be configured to send emails in batches of say 50 through a relay host, or does anyone know of something that will?

 

I have a customer that has no choice of providers except a cable provider who recently started blocking port 25 to all SMTP servers except their own and restricts emails to 50 in one shot.  His thought was to simply upgrade to their business class service, but the only advantage of this was that they removed the port 25 block.  They would still restrict him to 50 emails.

 

It only becomes a problem when he does a broadcast message (price updates, etc.) to his customers, but he does this at least once a week to around 2000 customers.  This isn't spam, but mail to people that want his mailings and do business with him regularly.

 

For the extra $70 the cable company wants for the business class service, they shouldn't restrict anything, but in their infinite wisdom they deem it necessary to choke the hell out of business owners also.
